The Guys Next Door

Not many people have a “normal” family life, do they? But some people’s families are more unique than others. Erik and Sandro are a gay couple whose good friend Rachel is the surrogate for their two daughters. Rachel is a married Jewish woman in her forties, with an understanding, supportive husband and three children. The two families form a very unusual extended family. This lyrical documentary tackles some of the most pertinent issues of our time: gay marriage and parenting, surrogacy, nature vs. nurture. Elegantly shot and edited, and told with candor and humor, The Guys Next Door is an inspiring story of family, friendship and gay rights.75 min. USA. Watch the trailer here
